So this is happening on multiple bracelets I am making. Basically, I didn't cut the strings long enough and now I am running out of string. Is there any way to add more string and make it look good or seamless? Thank you!

There is a way Alex’s innovations has a video and I think Masha knots does too!

tape your new string to your workspace. take the short string and put it behind the bracelet. continue knotting as normal with your new string. hope that helps! 🙂

my string freaking snapped and now the part of the bracelet is less than an inch long. T-T how do i fix this? i'm doing my favorite bracelet so far. it is a half and half chevron.

@Phoenix_17 you’d basically still do the same thing as you would if your string got short except since your string snapped it is probably still long enough to reuse it. just tape a new string or your snapped string to your workspace and knot it back in! 🙂

@Phoenix_17 its similar to adding a new color in an alpha, but this is just a normal pattern.

@Phoenix_17 put what’s left of the string that’s still connected to the bracelet behind the bracelet. if the part that is disconnected to the bracelet is still long enough, you can reuse it by taping it to your workspace and knotting it back in. or you can get a new string altogether, tape it to your workspace, and knot it back in.

@Phoenix_17 what helped me was watching Alex's Innovations' video on how to add string to a bracelet. I was able to finish my bracelet with no trouble. I also watched Masha Knots' video and I think it is just as good. I hope this helps.
